Bullet Holes

CodeRiot

i had to get out
and see the world
so tired of this
i'm tired of my girl
with open eyes
I saw everything
sometimes I liked
what I only displayed

color coming back
left me bruised like that
don't keep me half hearted
I know I'm not your man

i had to see them
see them go under
like a bullet missing
only what it loves
I missed who I left
in a hole back home
so i swallowed the pill
i went under like them
I no longer gave a shit
cause where I was
you never even existed

color coming back
left me bruised like that
don't keep me half hearted
I know I'm not your man
all i ever had
all i ever did
A mistake I can't regret
cause where I am
you will never exist.

great work. Very powerful writing.

This is sad because you seem to feel so hopeless when you write "I know I'm not your man" and "cause where I am you will never exist"." :(

Communication is almost always the way to make things better, don't you think?

A person can go for years with an assumption that's wrong and it colors everything. Sometimes it's necessary to ask the question before you assume the answer.

This one shows powerful bitterness and sadness. It's very well written.

First off, I'm glad that came across as I had hoped.

Second... yes... communication is necessary for the good of any relationship and to be fully understood through all our assumptions about others emotions and thoughts, unfotunately, sometimes it's easier said than done... and this was one of those "sometimes"...
